HTML - Valid Target="_blank" Replacement

http://www.colletts.co.uk/winter_dolomites.htm

I have the above page that redirects users to my Winter Website - the HTML below isn't valid W3C does anyone know of a better and valid way to get this done? Cheers, Mas

HTML Code:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="2.5;URL=http://www.colletts.co.uk/winter/winter_dolomites.html" />

*please bear with me this is a simple problem which is sort of hard to explain*

I run a very small (15 page) website for myself. The site consists of an image_list page, which is an index of 13 thumbnail images. Each thumbnail links to a single page, each page being a larger image of the respective thumbnail. These 13 individual pages are directed at the same base target window, _ximage.

you can find the image_list window he
http://www.winslowsmith.com/work/index.html

click on any one of these thumbnail links and a new window (_ximage) will open. navigate back to the image_list and click another link, the _ximage window will reload with the new page. Pretty simple, right?, just a <base target=""> command.

In safari this all looks swell, and the _ximage window, whether open or not, will always come to the foreground to load.

Not the case in Firefox.

My problem in Firefox is as follows: opening one of the given links in image_list will load a new window (or tab), with _ximage target, and the first time, that new window/tab with _ximage target will come to focus and be in the foreground.

However, if the viewer leaves the _ximage window open, and navigates back to the image_list window and clicks another link, that link will load appropriately but the _ximage window will remain in the background. (and it works the same whether you are using windows or tabs to load your new pages). This is frustrating because it forces the viewer to click twice rather than just once to get to one of these 13 pages, and said pages are the reason people would traffic to the site.

Is there any way to have the links to base (_ximage) target always load in the foreground in Firefox(even when the target window _ximage is open)? Is there code to tell the Firefox browser, hey this is an important window load it in the foreground?

Is there a way to do it with anchors?

any help is appreciated

Hello,

I've got a simple page with frames and a list of links. I'm trying to get hyperlinks to open into a frame called "PicFrame."

The code I've got works (opens the link into the PicFrame) in IE8, FF, Opera, and Chrome, but not IE6 or IE7 which is what my 2 computers use most-frequently.

Does anyone have any suggestions for a workaround?
A fragment of the simple code is below.

Thanks.

HTML Code:

//WITHOUT A HYPERLINK
<TR><TD>
<font size=2 face="verdana">Team 6  -  Dewey, Killum, & Howe</font>
</TD></TR>
                		       
				
//WITH A HYPERLINK                                
<TR><TD>
<font size=2 face="verdana">Team 7  - <a href="picturePage.PHP?id=003-1-2009-07"; target="PicFrame";> Setting John Malkovich</a></font>
</TD></TR>

I regularly send e-mails with large PDF attachments and quite often the e-mails bounce back from their servers, even with really small attachments. I would normally just send a link to a file on our server, but my boss doesn't like this because he tried opening it on his machine and his plug-in for Adobe is corrupt giving him a blank screen, and this leads him to believe this is what others are seeing. I know, I know... But I am not in a position to educate him on fixing his own computer.

My question is: Is there ANY workaround to creating a link that will open a PDF in reader directly? I cannot use PHP or any other server-side script as this is an e-mail, not a web site. But I can't risk sending attachments that bounce back. Any solution to this??

A customer gave me a Word doc that they want turned into a printer friendly web page. I understand that there are tons of ways to do this but I really want the answer to the subject. What i'm referring to is a form that someone can print from the browser and "fill in the blanks" on the page where there are "underscores". My question is how to code those underscores. I tried manipulating the <hr> tag but it's putting way too much space in between each <hr>. I've already coded a "fill in the blank" line using <u>&nbsp;nbsp;</u> but that looks very messy.

What do you guys/gals think?

I was hoping someone could clue me in as to whether or not this would be possible. I'm thinking it isn't but I need to make sure. I'd like to provide a file for people to download on my website, but when they click on the link and the download window appears I don't want them to have the option of opening it. Is it possible to only give them the option to save the file?

Sounds incredibly unlikely but I gotta know.

Hi all,

I am currently working on a website using Dreamweaver CS3.

Whenever I view the (currently very basic) site in Firefox I get the line of code I entered as the title of this thread at the top of the page (directly above the banner) as if I had just typed it into the canvas area (correct term?). Whenever I view it in IE it appears just fine, not sure about other browsers though.

I began by creating a template and adding it to the page you see he

HTML Code:

http://www.geocities.com/makotronic/indexx.htm

Here is the code for the template:

Hey,

I'm trying to write some code for expanding and concealing text
You can see this in action at youtube when you click the (more) button to expand text.

Suppose I had a heading: MyHeading
and a body of text: MyTextHere

How do I make it so that when you click MyHeading it makes MyTextHere (initially not visible) appear, and when you click MyHeading again, it makes MyTextHere disappear?

Thanks Alot.

Hi,

I have a problem with validating Strict XHTML 1.0
...


The tag: "option" doesn't have an attribute: "onchange" in currently active versions.[XHTML 1.0 Strict]...

Is there a way around this?

Here's the code:.

<select name="birth_month" onchange="form_d('yes');" size="1" style="width:8em">
<option<?php echo empty($a_birth_month)?' selected="selected"':''?> value="" onchange="form_d('yes');" >Month</option>

Thanks

Only another million pages to go.

Rather than write them out i took a screenshot.



So how do i get past those?

hello,
can you please give me a sample code showing the difference between ismap and usemap.
I need to give a seminar on it !!!!!

Hello folks,
I have written some html, xhtml possibly, which has an href to another page, the second page being in frames and in a new window. It worked fine on an Me but now in XP it won't open the 2nd window (from the link in the first) saying it can't locate file bla bla bla, check the address.... The odd thing is where there were gaps in the address which I blocked in with a " %20 " for the browser to recognise, its saying its looking for the right address but with a 25 where all the %20's are, as well as the twenties themselves, so they now appear as "html%2520code" for example.
When I open the file that is the target of the link I get the typical white file not found page, but it is dividing the screen as the frames of that file tell it to do.
I would appreciate somebody telling me what the error could possibly be

Hi there,

I m using dom with css in my web page. Using the document type
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

My dom effect is not visible in mozilla 2.0. In stead if I am using the document type
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">

Is this vaild using w3c standards?

Any help in this issue would be appreciable.

Thanks in advance
